Service contract expired, what can you do about the oil leaking from mixer?

It's just a matter of the grease breaking down and leaking out. Take it apart, clean out all the old grease, and replace it. I've done it quite a few times.

Try some oil or grease, you can clean it off with a solvent if it doesn't work

Collette, wash it out and dry it well................fill it almost to the top and bake it in the oven at 325 for a hour or so. let it cool and throw the oil away. Wipe it dry and it should be good to go.

My best friend has had hers for 21 years, I have had mine for 16. These mixers are awesome. I use mine five times a week. As far as leaking oil I have only had that happen when liquid or dough gets up in the mixer part where it should not be. Just dry it off before it gets in the food. You will LOVE this mixer!

Hello there! I'm sorry to say (or is it good?) that we haven't had the Filter in that long to have to Clean it yet? I believe, but am not sure, that K&N; have their own type of Oil to Re-oil? Not for sure though? Sorry I couldn't be more help. Really like the Filter though! Seems to really help in the Midrange of the Power-band. Good luck! :0)

Spray a little wd40 on it after use. They make an oil. But that works just fine

Call kitchenaid, they are very helpful and will have the right answer once you give them the numbers off your mixer.

I bought my unit from CPO Bosch. It was shipped with oil in it which leaked all over.. The unit is an OUTSTANDING compressor and I am very happy with it. Despite oil leaking all over it. Make sure and follow break in instructions to insure proper use.

I had the same problem, just after the one year warranty expired.I just ordered another jar from the company, $71 including shipping, etc.The good news is that it is now guaranteed for 3 years.

I just checked the Hamilton Beach website for a new jar as mine is leaking. The jar is listed for $6.49 but the shipping is via UPS to my address is $13.21 for Ground service. Buy a new blender. That is what I am going to do.

You need to change the oil, frankly sooner than that. It's just shipping oil. you'd practically be better off with crisco. for legal reasons I hesitate to mention which oils to use however.

I would send it back to Amazon or whichever retailer. Call them first and explain the problem. Most small appliances have at least 90 day warranty. You will need a return authorization number "RA #". Write that on the box. They should replace the entire pan free.

I would try calling the company, there was no warranty I had to fill out and send back. I may be covered for a year since my purchase, but that is what I would do call redken, I can give you the number in the manual if you need it

Hi Maa, My advice would be that you check your warranty. I think you will find that it's not very lengthy. Just make certain if you have a tilt head mixer you get the same in the beater and the same for the lift bowl mixer. That said, I've used mine countless times without any problem. Enjoy the convenience of not having to continuously scrape down the bowl.

I would check my paper work or service manual that came with your Kitchen Aid mixer, if you still have it. If not check online at www.kitchenaid.com or call them at 1-800-253-1301. Hopefully you will be able to get help. Hope I was able to help you.

I don't think Kitchenaid makes this grease. It is a food grade high temp grease. I am quite sure you can do a little bit of web searching to find the same grease in a smaller container to repair your mixer. The thing is the time your mixer will be out of commission while waiting for replacement. It will come quick from Amazon, but it will be way, way more than you need.
